Just curious, how will dBase Plus function when Windows goes
to 64 bit?

Will we need a newer version of Plus? or ???

Just as the 32-bit versions of Windows still work with 16-bit software
(even with DOS software), Microsoft will remember the OS/1 fiasco and
will make the new OS backward compatible with (at least) 32-bit software.
